About This Home

As of August 2025

Charming Historic Home Just Off Lincoln Park | Patio | Garage. Step into the story of Capitol Hill with this beautifully preserved 1913 rowhome tucked just off Lincoln Park—Washington’s oldest public park and a cornerstone of Pierre L’Enfant’s original 1791 plan. During the Civil War, Lincoln Park was home to a hospital treating wounded Union soldiers. One can sit high on the steps of 139 and see the hospital ambulances running up and down 11th Street and, in the evening, witness the soldiers assigned to the hospital heading out for happy hour in the various bars in the neighborhood. Maybe even to the original Tunnicliff’s 4 blocks away at 9th and Pennsylvania Ave! Steeped in history and community charm, this home sits across from the iconic Philadelphia Row, and just four blocks from Eastern Market and a ten minute walk to the U.S. Capitol. Offering 1,110 sq ft of thoughtfully updated living space, this home seamlessly blends classic architecture with modern comforts. Enjoy: 2 spacious bedrooms & 1.5 stylish baths. A sweet private patio and sought after garage parking. Beautifully refinished hardwood floors. Custom Bullseye cabinetry in kitchen & dining room. Sleek Caesarstone quartz countertops. High-end Bosch appliances. New windows (Marvin & Pella) and Pella French doors. Thoughtful touches throughout! Outside your door, Lincoln Park comes alive with joggers, strollers, morning coffee at Wine & Butter Cafe, and evening cocktails at Paccis. The neighborhood's vibrant spirit, rich history, and walkable convenience offer the perfect Capitol Hill lifestyle. 139 offers a rare opportunity to live in a home that feels both historic and wholly yours.
